Raven's POV
"May I have this dance with this beautiful lady?" A voice asked, head bowed low. Axel growled as my eyes widened. Damian.

"She's taken! You fuckin' blind or can't you see the mark! Go the fuck away!" Axel shouted turning heads towards us. The rouge king smirked and laughed.

"A possessive one you've got there." He winked at me and Axel pushed me behind me, standing in front protectively.

"Get your fuckin bloody desperate ass away from here." Axel growled. Hayden stood beside me asking if I was okay. I nodded and held onto Axel's hand, squeezing it.

"You know Raven, that dress would look-" he was cut off with a powerful punch to the jaw. Everyone's eyes stayed fixed on the scene, like it was a normal thing that happened everyday. After all, they were Alphas, but seeing an Alpha fight another was rare, so very rare. Especially at the Moonlight Ball.

"Axel. Calm down." I whispered rubbing his arm up and down as he turned back towards me and kissed me on the lips.

"You are mine." He muttered possessively before I quickly saw Hayden step in front of him deflecting Damian's blow. Axel turned around as quick as lightning and gave him a powerful kick to the neck sending him down on the ground once again. A few other rouge kings surrounded him helping him up.

"You just started war." Damian snickered as they walked away disappearing into the crowd.

"Hayden, tell me, how many alliances have we got again?" Axel asked.

"About four packs, five including mine." He shrugged. Axel let out a deep laugh.

"And he thinks he can beat us." He chuckled grinning devilishly. I paused. If I'm pregnant, that means I can't do more of my work with the rouges, or even lead the pack during the attack. I guess the baby comes first now. Who am I kidding? Of course it does. The music slowly faded back in as everyone started talking again, no doubt about what just happened.

"We're leaving this place. It's no longer safe." He stated and I glanced back at the food one more time. Nope. Not leaving without some.

"Axxxeeellll..." I dragged tugging on his arm. He looked at me questioningly and I continued.

"Can I have some, food?" I asked pouting. He sighed and looked at me once more before nodding. He kept me by his side as we walked to the tables before I helped myself to some of the cake again. It was really good. Can you blame me? Before I could help myself to another piece I felt myself being picked up by the waist and carried away. Whining I tried to pull his arms off but it wouldn't budge. I wonder how weird we looked right now. You know what? I don't even want to know. In no time we were out of the so called 'Moonlight Ball' where everything was meant to be perfect. We were lead into a limo and Axel ordered them to bring us back to the airport. Already? Apparently its unsafe here. I just went along not really wanting to start up an argument. Right now I am in the jet's bedroom, already in my comfy sweaters just lying on the bed with Axel beside me rubbing my stomach.

"Do you think it would be a boy, or a girl?" He asked.

"I don't know. What do you want?"

"A boy." He shrugged. Typical.

"Why?"

"Because if we have a girl, she would end up looking like a goddess, which means there will be boys going after her, and heck I swear to the Moon Goddess that she will not be able to date until she's at least 40." He huffed. I giggled at the thought.

"Hey, but I'm not 40 yet, not even 20." I poked his arm.

"That's a different story cause you're mine." He stated pulling me to his chest. I melted in his embrace. It has only been a few days or weeks, that we have been together and yet I feel so comfortable with him, despite all he did.

"What do you want to name him or her?" I questioned curious about his choice of names.

"Hm. What would you like to name him or her?" He asked. I glared at him and he chuckled.

"I asked first."

"I asked second. Now tell me."

"If it was a girl I was thinking Sapphire or Hazel. For the boy maybe Enrique or Daniel." I stated.

"Beautiful names." He said pecking my lips. Loud beeping boomed through as we shot out of bed.

"Hello. This is the pilot speaking. Something has been planted in the engine and there is a high chance that we will crash any moment now. Please get all safety equipment, two located under the bed, couch, bathroom sink and chairs." He panicked and a loud beep cut us off. Axel immediately scrambled off already holding them both up as I just got off. They were life jackets and parachutes in one. He strapped one on me and another on himself. Well damn that was quick.

"Quick. We might crash at any moment." He mumbled running, dragging me behind him and reaching the safety evacuation door. I saw him signal the pilot over to get out too. Axel opened the door as air blew in making me shiver.

"Okay, Raven, you are going to jump first okay? And then see this red ring thing? Pull it after about three seconds and you will be good. I will be right behind you okay?" He said. I nodded and pecked his lips.

"Love you." I said after I jumped out. Air hit my face and eyes, burning them. I pulled the red ring and I was lifted and slowly floated. I saw Axel falling down followed by the pilot as the plane sparked a light and continued to fall. The thing was that as he jumped about a few seconds after me, the plane was already shooting in another direction separating us, but as he jumped, and as the pilot followed closely, the plane exploded. It just burst up in flames. I screamed as tears rolled down my face hoping to see Axel somewhere, falling, floating, but I don't. I don't see any of them. Smoke filled the air as I choked on my breath and my eyes continued to stare. Axel. Where are you? Our baby needs you. I kept staring until the plane disappeared. No one. No body. No blood. Just fire. Smoke. And a plane. Strangled cries left my mouth as tears poured down my face. Silent tears. The tears that hurt most, so much you can't hear a thing. When I thought I was about to hit the water strong arms grabbed me pulling me into another vehicle. Helicopter. The whirring sound buzzed in my ears as I quickly spun around hoping to see Axel.

No.
No way.
